I changed the timeline with the game.

Chapter 299: In the Lost Sea, Knowledge is Equal to Treasure
five minutes later.

After the identity check, the two boarded the ship.

Then, following the waiter's guidance, he walked towards the VIP cabin No. 16, a double room on the fourth floor of Area B of the ocean-going giant ship.

Jiang Menghan did not travel abroad very often, and the few times she did were when she went on study tours with Su Wen to visit the Louvre in Paris or the La Scala Opera House in Milan, Italy.

And most of the time she travels by plane, so she has not had much experience in pure sailing travel.

So at this moment, seeing this steam ferry full of medieval atmosphere and with a quartz pendulum clock hanging as a timekeeper, it does inexplicably give me a sense of being transported back to the Victorian era.

Su Wen opened the door with the brass medieval metal key handed to him by the sailor, which was engraved with the rune-enchanted lock of Lawrence Riel Maritime Academy.

The moment you open the door, you will be greeted by the medieval European-style interior decoration.

Gorgeous candlesticks held up flickering candlelight, the dining table opposite the warm fireplace was laid with glittering silver tableware, and the house was filled with a faint floral scent.

This point was also mentioned by Jiang Menghan:
"The scent of gardenia is different from that in Jiangnan. It's lighter, like the kind in Europe."

After hearing this, Su Wen thought for a moment and gave the answer:
“It must be from Andorra.

It was also mentioned in the information provided by Phyllis that the Andorra Mansion in Western Europe uses the lighter-scented gardenia as its national flower. Since the century of origin, it has also been "soothing" and listed as one of the extraordinary materials by the Alchemy Association under the Aurora Council.

Captain Jerome is indeed experienced in placing calming flowers to decorate the cabin of the Lost Sea Oceangoing Ship. "

then.

Lines of system prompts quietly emerged:

[Dear Chief Player]

[In the Sea of Lost, knowledge will also become an invaluable treasure]

【Congratulations】

[You have discovered the first treasure card 'Andorran Spice']

[You have discovered the 'Opening up the Lost Sea' side activity: Collect decks and search for treasures]

[Treasure Card Usage: Calming the Mind (can resist actual mental attacks and mental suggestion below level 3) can only be used once]

[Belongs to the treasure card deck 'Andorra Casamanya Foothills']

【Three cards in total】

[Note: If you have collected all three treasure cards when you arrive at [Lighthouse: Andorra], you can obtain the corresponding treasure clues and mark them.]

Su Wen hung his coat on the coat rack beside him.

then.

After lighting the Victorian gas lamps hanging next to the Baroque murals,

He used his [Modular Assembly] and Appraisal skills to analyze the internal energy structure of the VIP rest cabin:

“It has two energy supply modes: oil-fired electricity and steam engine power.

It should be a modification specially made for the Lost Sea Route."

Hear him say that.

Jiang Menghan sat quietly aside, holding Paul Di Filippo's "The Steampunk Trilogy" in his hand, thinking for a moment.

Then he asked softly:

"Hasn't NASA already started experimenting with border navigation via telepathy?

Previously, Professor Reed Laws of Princeton University published a related paper at the Smithsonian in Washington.

Analyze according to the silver scale indicator.

As we continue to advance deeper into the border of the Lost Sea, the steam engine and psychic energy channeling should be the best combination."

The Iceberg Girl is based on the arguments put forward in the latest paper.

Su Wen leaned elegantly beside a wooden window frame with intricate carvings and waved his hand, projecting data:

“If it is based on common sense.

The biggest reason is that the Veltins did not undergo large-scale modifications due to insufficient safety and technical depth.

But in fact, the most likely reason for using an outdated pure power heat engine is because:

Voyagers fear the vast lives that hide deep in the darkness of the Lost Sea.

Just like the 'phototropism theory' of moths flying into flames. Psychic power.

For those huge and blind life forms, it is the only candle that emits light and heat."

Su Wen felt the electromagnetic signal he left at the Ice Point Bar in Detroit as a data anchor gradually becoming blurred.

But as a comparison.

The piece of high-purity Hesiram crystal, which is only the size of a grain of rice, can still sense the transmitted information through the anchoring line.

Hear his answer.

Jiang Menghan seemed to have thought of something, and she said softly:
“If there is such a possibility.

This kind of crisis probably requires more than just sailors to avoid.”

That's right.

This calm and beautiful girl understood the deep meaning of Su Wen's words in just a moment. Energy bait not only represents a taboo, but is also likely to be used as a symbol of "malice from others."

now.

The system prompt that just appeared appeared in front of Su Wen again:

Dear Chief Player,

【Please remember】

[In the Sea of Lost, knowledge will also become an invaluable treasure]

[You have discovered the first fog card 'Anglerfish Bait']

[You have discovered the 'Opening up the Lost Sea' side activity: Collect decks and search for treasures]

[Mist Card: Energy Trapping (can be used to trap deep-sea life near the Lost Sea and in the mid-depth waters) can only be used once]

[Belongs to the treasure card deck 'Deep Tide']

[There are six fog cards in this set]

[Note: When encountering [Mist: Black Tide Crisis], if you collect a complete set of Mist Cards, you can advance to obtain the corresponding hidden treasure clues and mark the corresponding location]

Analyze the prompts that just popped up twice.

Su Wen also saw that there was a yellowed treasure card and a dark blue fog card with the scent of the deep sea in the sailing backpack representing his computer.

He sat in front of the computer and thought silently:
It seems that the secrets hidden in the Lost Sea are probably greater than I expected.

As expected, it is in the database of the advanced autonomous artificial intelligence Ain No. 3: a secret border that appeared in the Quaternary Period.

Able to cross the sea of stars and reach the other side of multiple star regions.

Lost Sea is definitely worth it.

And now, after only entering the cabin for a short while, he had obtained information about two types of 'treasure cards' and 'fog cards' during his exploration of the Lost Sea.

The experiment has been completed.

Su Wen closed the energy frequency band link to the Hesiram crystal particles, and then calmly narrated:

“Humanity’s use of psychic energy probably only exists in the field of life energy flow.

Rather than a universal industrial level that can be accurate to the micro level."

Hear him say that.

The iceberg girl nodded slightly, and she opened the voyage record written in pure English in her hand. It was a knowledge record that could only be reserved in the library after boarding the Wiltings.

Su Wen just looked at the crowd rising in the huge ocean-going ship:

“In the great line of the Lost Sea.

Knowledge is equivalent to treasure."

According to the previous game process, after the foreshadowing is completed, it is time to enter the formal plot.

Half an hour later.

After all the original crew members have confirmed their identities and boarded the ship.

The original departure time for the first route of Lost Undersea Detroit [Deep Sea Blue Whale - Wilton Tins] has arrived.
